The Secret of Flowers

Sumiko worked with her mother in their vegetable garden every day. The produce from their garden was sold at the farmer’s market. This is how they made their living. Sumiko’s job was to make sure the daikon radish (白萝卜) plants were never too dry. Each day Sumiko would push her finger into the soil to test for moisture (水分), and then carefully water any plant that needed it. Sumiko often imagined the plants she tended were beautiful chrysanthemums (菊花), like Mrs. Higaki’s prize flowers.

Sumiko envied (羡慕) Mrs. Higaki. If she could sell flowers like Mrs. Higaki, she would be able to buy things for her mother. But chrysanthemums were expensive to start, and Sumiko could only dream about growing them.

One day, Sumiko visited Mrs. Higaki to see her flowers. Mrs. Higaki was checking her chrysanthemums when she arrived. The garden of flowers springing up excited Sumiko.

“I wish I could grow beautiful chrysanthemums and win a prize at the festival like you.”

“You?” Mrs. Higaki laughed. “Child, do you know what’s required to grow such flowers? The secret of growing prize chrysanthemums has been passed down to me from past generations of my family. And you?” She chuckled. “Stick to vegetables, child. Leave flowers to those who know the secret of flowers.”

Mrs. Higaki returned to her gardening, ignoring the sad look on Sumiko’s face. Then she pulled up what looked like a weed.

“What’s that?” Sumiko asked.

“A shabby plant. Unworthy of my time—too weak to trouble,” Mrs. Higaki said before throwing the shabby plant into the field beside the garden.

Sumiko smiled. She had an idea. She politely said goodbye to Mrs. Higaki and went out the garden gate, quickly picking up the shabby plant before rushing home.

文本解读

 

 

本文以人物为线索展开。文章主要讲述了Sumiko与母亲一起种植蔬菜为生，她每天的工作就是检查白萝卜的水分是否足够，以及给缺水的白萝卜浇水。她非常羡慕能种出美丽菊花的Higaki夫人。一天，她拜访Higaki夫人，询问Higaki夫人如何能种出美丽的菊花，Higaki笑了笑，告诉她种花是祖传的手艺，并劝她放弃种花，专心种植蔬菜。Sumiko很伤心，但突然，她看到夫人丢弃了一株看似弱小的植物。Sumiko心生一计，悄悄将植物带回家，打算自己培育。她希望能种出美丽的菊花，证明自己也能种出与Higaki夫人一样美丽的花朵。

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

思路点拨

 

 

①由续文第一段首句“Sumiko找了一个安静的地方，小心翼翼地种下了那株破败的植物。”可知，在这一段中，应重点描写Sumiko悉心照料植物的场景。经过Sumiko的悉心照料，植物的长势如何？长出菊花来了吗？根据续文第二段首句可知，这株植物不是菊花，那么Sumiko放弃它了吗？在知道它不是菊花后，Sumiko是怎样对待它的呢？因此，本段可就以上几个问题展开描写。

 

②由续文第二段首句“在节日的早晨，Sumiko看到她的小植物开花，高兴地跳了起来。”可知，经过Sumiko的悉心照料，植物开花了。又因为续文第二段提示，Sumiko的花是在节日庆典的早上开的，所以我们可以想象Sumiko带着她的花去参加了节日庆典，那么她的花获奖了吗？Mrs. Higaki看到Sumiko的植物开出美丽的花，对Sumiko的看法有什么变化呢？因此，本段我们可以根据这两个提示来展开续写。

 

 

 

 

 

 

参考范文

 

 

Sumiko found a quiet place and planted the shabby plant carefully. She watered it every day, nurturing it with care and attention. She treated it as her baby. She imagined it would one day grow into a beautiful chrysanthemum, and she was determined to prove Mrs. Higaki wrong. As time went by, the plant grew stronger and taller, but it still did not look like a chrysanthemum. However, Sumiko did not give up, and she continued to care for it with love and patience.

On festival morning, Sumiko jumped with joy upon seeing her little plant flowering. It wasn’t a chrysanthemum, but a vibrant and unique bloom with soft pink petals. She knew she had achieved something special. She took the flower to the festival. Although it did not win a prize, it did win the admiration of many. Mrs. Higaki, seeing Sumiko’s proud face and the unique flower, realized that the secret of growing flowers was not just passed down from generation to generation, but also found in the hearts of those who cared deeply for them.
